Build Instructions

If you are building from a source control checkout, run:

./bootstrap.sh

to generate the configure script.

From the top-level directory, run the following commands:

./configure
make

The public API is defined in strophe.h which is in the top-level directory.

The examples directory contains some examples of how to use the library; these may be helpful in addition to the API documentation

To install on your system, as root (or using sudo):

make install

Note, the default install path is /usr/local/, to specify another path use the --prefix option during configure, e.g.:

./configure --prefix=/usr
